Not something I do very often. My style if I have one, is to try new things and do something different all the time. So for me to like a design so much that I use it twice on the same day is pretty much unheard of.
Above is the first one, a simple idea making an ideal CAS card. Memory Box die used for aperture the resulting die cut used as a stencil. 3 colours blended over Tattered Rose, Picked Raspberry and Barn Door the colours just fall outside the heart shape both inside and outside the card. I don't think it needs anymore.
Challenges
CAS on Friday - #198 Love
My Time to Craft - #450 Love
Color Hues - #11 Red & Pink
Time Out - #181 Photo Inspiration. I've used pink and red with a heart.
While Making the first card I kept trying to see how it could be used for the current Less is More challenge, #436 Chocolate. It is their 10th anniversary so this is a special challenge. This time I used a light brown card stock, the blending was with Frayed Burlap, Brushed Corduroy, Walnut Stain and Aged Mahogany. This time I used and old alphabet punch to punch 3 kisses from some scrap used to use up the pink and red inks dusted on the first card.

What a great idea to use a die cut for your stencil to blend through and I love the 3D effect that this gives. Thanks for sharing with us at Just Add Ink this week.
